Pendleton Ward plays adventure game with Twitter followers

SAN ANTONIO — Only Pendleton Ward could draw up such a dungeon crawl for social media. The “Adventure Time” creator, who also grew up in San Antonio, recently unleashed “Quest Attack,” a Twitter-driven game where he draws the commands of his Twitter followers.

Ward does occasionally “pause” the action (with faded screen, no less) to handle real-world drudgery like laundry and showering, but so far he’s really committed himself to the “Quest.” It helps that the game rules are as simple as his drawings: only one command at a time, and he can pause the game but can’t “unpause” it.
